Today I want to show you one of the new Gail Green images. Gail often makes really detailed stamps, so I find that they stamp best with Versafine ink. Also, because there is so much detail, you can add just a smidge of color with Prismacolor pencils or watercolor pencils, and it looks like you did more work than you actually did. Therefore, her images are perfect if you need to crank out a lot of cards in a short amount of time!For my card today, I used the Snowman with Treats stamp (G7636) along with the Merry Christmas saying (B10011). I colored the image with watercolor pencils and then softened the color with a Dove blender pen. I then layered everything onto some Memory Box dot paper.

Thanks for the Versafine tip - your coloring is awesome, I can't tell where the stamp ends and where your coloring starts.
What a fun card! The colors are so happy, and your coloring is beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration!
So, so cute! Love that candy cane! The image is gorgeous and may be easy to color but you have done it justice by adding the perfect little touches to finish it off. Thanks for the sneak peek!

I'm a versafine girl, too! What a handsome man. Really like the uncluttered look of this as it allows your coloring and the stamp itself to shine. Thanks for sharing.
